I have to admit that I have been guilty of watching my dad play the drums on occasions (he bought a whole REAL drum set and takes lessons too) and I myself bought (not drum set) but drum sticks so I can practice in my kitchen while I cook.
Anyways, there’s a bunch of great free sources on how to play the drums, one site I found very helpful was Jared Falk’s FreeDrumLessons.com. (You can check out his YouTube channel here.)
Check out one of his “advanced” drum lessons on how to play along your favorite rock music:

Of course, what I like most about his videos is that there’s videos for you whether you are a beginner like me or already have some moderate skills.
Frankly, I like watching videos to learn but if you want to learn some of the written basics, check these out too:
